Kaine casts Trump officials as Holocaust deniers

Sen. Tim Kaine on Sunday said it was "not a coincidence" that the White House imposed a "religious test" on Muslims as part of President Donald Trump's immigration ban and omitted references to Jews in a Holocaust remembrance statement on the same day.

In an interview with NBC's "Meet the Press," the Virginia Democrat and Hillary Clinton's former running mate pointed a finger at White House chief strategist Steve Bannon, who served as an executive at the conservative news outlet Breitbart.

"All of these things are happening together," Kaine said. "When you have the chief political adviser in the White House, Steve Bannon, who is connected with a news organization that traffics in white supremacy and anti-Semitism, and they put out a Holocaust statement that omits any mention of Jews."

Kaine added, "President Obama, President Bush always talk about the Holocaust in connection with the slaughter of Jews. The final solution was about the slaughter of Jews. We have to remember this. This is what Holocaust denial is," talking about the fringe movement that refuses to acknowledge that Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler deliberately murdered 6 million Jews.

"The fact that they did that," Kaine said of the Trump adminstration, "and imposed this religious test against Muslims in the executive orders on the same day, this is not a coincidence."

1. Then I am curious why Kaine would vote for any of Trumps nominees?

I would like to see our Democrats exhibiting some sort of cohesive strategy to combat this coup!

2. That's the Bannon/Breitbart crowd

The reason I am so sure of this stuff is I watched a relative go from normal to hating Jews in a couple of years. He read all their stuff. So I did. I know all their names. I know what they believe. They are Nazi's. It's not hyperbole. The hate weakness. They hate anybody that isn't White. It extends to women. They want white women to breed more white babies-the men's right's stuff intersects with this. Banning abortion is a part of it too.

Trump mocked every group-all the groups Hitler put in the gas chamber or had killed because they weren't perfect specimens or weren't Christian. Women were nothing but breeding machines. And the only class I fall into that they hate-political protesters=political prisoner-they went to the gulags and gas chambers just as much as any Gay or Jew or physically imperfect human.

We are all in danger. Resist.
